Answer:

For 135 students , the number of teacher requires is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The number of teacher = 6

The number of student = 90

∵ For 90 students , the number of teacher requires = 6

So , For 1 student , the number of teacher requires = $\frac{6}{90}$

= $\frac{1}{15}$

∴ For 135 student , the number of teacher requires = $\frac{1}{15}$ ×135

Or, For 135 student , the number of teacher requires = $\frac{135}{15}$

So, For 135 student , the number of teacher requires = 9

Hence For 135 students , the number of teacher requires is 9 Answer

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

U= {A,B,C,D,E,F,G}

X = {A, B, C, D}

Y = {A, C, E, F}

a) X or Y = {A, B, C, D} and {A, C, E, F} = {A, B, C, D, E, F}

B) X and Y = {A, B, C, D} or {A, C, E, F} = {A, C}

c) Complement of X = {A,B,C,D,E,F,G} - {A, B, C, D} = {B,D,G}

A triangle is formed from the points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8). Find the equation of the following lines:

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Part A) $y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}$

Part B) $y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}$

Part C) $y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8)

Part A) Find the equation of the median from N

we Know that

The median passes through point N to midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

$M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})$

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

$M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})$

$M(-1,-1)$

step 2

Find the slope of the segment NM

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

N(3, 2) and M(-1,-1)

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-1-2}{-1-3}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-4}$

$m=\frac{3}{4}$

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=\frac{3}{4}$

$point\ N(3, 2)$

substitute

$y-2=\frac{3}{4}(x-3)$

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

$y-2=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}$

$y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}+2$

$y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}$

Part B) Find the equation of the right bisector of LP

we Know that

The right bisector is perpendicular to LP and passes through midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

$M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})$

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

$M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})$

$M(-1,-1)$

step 2

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}$

$m=\frac{-14}{4}$

$m=-\frac{14}{4}$

$m=-\frac{7}{2}$

step 3

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

$m_1*m_2=-1$

we have

$m_1=-\frac{7}{2}$

so

$m_2=\frac{2}{7}$

step 4

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=\frac{2}{7}$

$point\ M(-1,-1)$ ----> midpoint LP

substitute

$y+1=\frac{2}{7}(x+1)$

step 5

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

$y+1=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}$

$y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}-1$

$y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}$

Part C) Find the equation of the altitude from N

we Know that

The altitude is perpendicular to LP and passes through point N

step 1

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}$

$m=\frac{-14}{4}$

$m=-\frac{14}{4}$

$m=-\frac{7}{2}$

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

$m_1*m_2=-1$

we have

$m_1=-\frac{7}{2}$

so

$m_2=\frac{2}{7}$

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=\frac{2}{7}$

$point\ N(3,2)$

substitute

$y-2=\frac{2}{7}(x-3)$

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

$y-2=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}$

$y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}+2$

$y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}$

Find the mode: 16,12,10,15,7,916

Airida [17]

The mode is the value from a given set of data that occurs most often. It is the data with the highest frequency.

Given:

16,12,10,15,7,9,16

Form the above data given;

Rearranging for easy identification, we have;

7,9,10,12,15,16,16

$\begin{gathered} 7\text{ appears once} \\ 9\text{ appears once} \\ 10\text{ appears once} \\ 12\text{ appears once} \\ 15\text{ appears once} \\ 16\text{ appears twice} \end{gathered}$

From the above, we can deduce that the mode is 16 because it appears the most often. It appears twice.

Therefore, the mode is 16.
